Many people will be watching this performance with a great sense of nostalgia and awe of the bends period back in the mid 90's whether its the innovative music videos, the unique atmosphere of this album ..the bends was mostly ignored after its initial release and instead overtime has slowly developed a following ..
even if you miss this particular era of the bands sound, its hard not to admire them for continuously trying to create new worlds of sound on each album which creates excitement and anticipation, their albums are usually a reaction to the music they are listening to at the time, and back then, magazine, jeff & Tim buckley, scott walker, sonic youth, queen, the smiths, the beatles were major influences on the band, this is an album you play anytime and it still sounds fresh and bald, it was voted by Time Magazine as the 2nd greatest Album ever made .. ..
Radiohead played high and dry & the bends on jools holland in 1995 alongside Elvis Costello & artists such as Chris Isaak and a brilliant raggae group named " Lucky Dube ".

E-Bow the Letter:
[from New Adventures in Hi-Fi]
Look up. What do you see?
All of you and all of me,
fluorescent and starry,
some of them they surprise
busride. I went to write this, 4:00 a.m.
this letter.
fields of poppies, little pearls.
All the boys and all the girls
sweet-toothed, each and every one a little scary.
I said your name.
I wore it like a badge of teenage film stars,
hash bars, cherry mash and tin foil tiaras.
Dreaming of Maria Callas,
whoever she is.
This fame thing, I don't get it.
I wrapped my hand in plastic to try to look through it.
Maybelline eyes and girl-as-boy moves.
I can take you far.
This star thing, I don't get it.
[I'll take you over. I'll take you there.]
Aluminum, it tastes like fear.
Adrenaline, it pulls us near.
Will you live to 83?
Will you ever welcome me,
will you show me something that nobody else has seen?
Smoke it, drink.
Here comes the flood,
anything to thin the blood.
These corrosives do their magic slowly, and sweet.
Phone, eat it, drink.
just another chink,
cuts and dents they catch the light.
Aluminum, the weakest link.
I don't want to disappoint you.
I'm not here to annoint you.
I would lick your feet
but is that the sickest move,
I wear my own crown, and sadness, and sorrow,
and who'd of thought tomorrow could be so strange?
My loss. And here we go again.
[I'll take you over. I'll take you there.]
Aluminum, it tastes like fear.
Adrenaline, it pulls us near.
It tastes like fear.
It pulls us near.
Look up, what do you see?
All of you and all of me,
fluorescent and starry
some of them they surprise.
I can't look it in the eyes.
Seconal, spanish fly, absinthe, kerosene,
cherry-flavored neck and collar.
I can smell the sorrow on your breath.
The sweat, the victory and sorrow.
This smell thing, I got it.
[I'll take you over. I'll take you there.]
Aluminum, it tastes like fear.
Adrenaline, it pulls us near.
It tastes like fear.
It pulls us near.
It tastes like fear.
It pulls us near.
